"During Jan's short and serious illness, we, and by we I mean Ania Losinger and Mats Eser - also musicians, composers and inventors of instruments, traveled from Switzerland to Dresden several times to fulfill his wish to play as much music as possible.<br/>
<br/>
He continued to play his Stahlcello until just a few days before his death, mustering the last of his strength to create a music so pure, that it seems to come from another place. It is grand, unpretentious, beautiful and hits you straight in the heart. It is that part of Jan which will endure.</p>
<p>Jan left his recordings to us and expressed the wish that they would one day be released as the first ever solo album featuring Stahlcello." (words by Ania Losinger and Mats Eser)<br/> <br/>

It is a thoroughly reworked version of my earlier book on Overtone Singing (subtitled <em>Physics and Metaphysics of Harmonics in East and West</em>). It summarises my 30+ years of research in this field as a vocalist and musicologist and discusses all aspects of overtone singing, from physics and listening to body-mind issues and from Turko-Mongol traditions to contemporary music with overtone singing. You can read a longer excerpt from the book's introduction on <a href="https://www.fusica.nl/overtone-singing-book/">https://www.fusica.nl/overtone-singing-book/</a> and also learn more about the upcoming <em>Anthology of Overtone Singing</em>.<br/> <br/> Right now a crowdsourcing campaign for this book is running on Indiegogo. The book will be published in the USA with distribution around the world.<br/> <br/> If you are interested to widen your understanding of overtone singing, you can consider to pre-order a copy of the book or to support the campaign in more interesting ways (with the audio included, with an online class or live concert etc.).

<p><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/10453998268?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/10453998268?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-center"/></a>Five years after <em>La Silencieuse</em> (Cas Particuliers/Buda Musique 2017), Meïkhâneh further affirms the Persian, Mongolian and European influences of its music, at the crossroads of World Music and an imaginary Folk. The trio explores interiority and exteriority, the cocoon and the vast world, what is felt and what is said. A call to space, to travel, to nature...<br/> This new album offers 13 songs that are both luminous and intimate, earthy and vibrant. Sung in Mongolian, Persian, Portuguese, Greek, French and imaginary language, the C<em>hants du dedans, Chants du dehors</em> deliver limpid, deep melodies, dancing rhythms, in a setting of plucked, rubbed strings, between earth and sky.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meïkhâneh is:</span></p>
<p>-Maria Laurent (voice, tovshuur lute, banjo, transverse flute)<br/> -Johanni Curtet (throat-singing, khöömii, guitar, dombra lute, morin khuur fiddle,<br/> mouth harps)<br/>
-Milad Pasta (voice, percussions zarb, daf, udu drum, riqq)</p>
<p>Guest Musicians : Pauline Willerval (gadulka, cello), Dylan James (double bass)</p>

</p>
<p>///FR///<br/> Cinq ans après La Silencieuse (Cas Particuliers/Buda Musique 2017), Meïkhâneh affirme davantage les influences persanes, mongoles et européennes de sa musique, au croisement d'une World Music et d'une Folk imaginaires. Le trio explore l’intériorité et l’extériorité, le cocon et le vaste monde, ce qui se ressent et ce qui se dit. Un appel à l'espace, au voyage, à la nature...<br/> Ce nouvel album propose 13 chansons à la fois lumineuses et intimistes, terriennes et vibrantes. Chantés en mongol, persan, portugais, grec, français et langue imaginaire, les Chants du dedans, Chants du dehors livrent des mélodies limpides, profondes, des rythmes dansants, dans un écrin de cordes pincées, frottées, entre terre et ciel.</p>
<ul>
<li>Maria Laurent (voix, luth tovshuur, banjo, flûte traversière)<br/> Johanni Curtet (chant de gorge, khöömii, guitare, luth dombra, vièle morin khuur,<br/> guimbardes)<br/>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>"Just intonation!? - That does not exist !!"</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The above was a response I received from the music director of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rundetaarn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Copenhagen Round Tower</a>, who himself was a high-level musician, when I told him that the theme for one of the concert evenings at the week-long program in connection with the exhibition <a href="https://issuu.com/skyelof/docs/musikkens_moenster" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Spiral Tonality</a>, 2008, should be <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_intonation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Just intonation</a>. His facial expressions and tone of voice certainly did not indicate immediate enthusiasm.</p>

<p>Although the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_temperament" target="_blank" rel="noopener">equal temperament</a> is practical and has evened out almost all the many facets of tuning theory, so that only a few, even among music experts, are really aware of the countless other ways of tuning, Just intonation in certain contexts certainly has its justification, not least because said equal temperament, culturally has given us a conditioned habituation to consider significantly false tones – 4 of the 12 intervals in the series – acceptable. The intervals in question are minor and major thirds as well as minor and major sixths, all of which deviate about one-seventh of a semitone from the acoustically pure intervals.</p>
<p>Mathematically, this modern standard tuning makes all semitones equal (frequency increase for each step: 1: 12√2, also written 121/12, twelfth root of two, 1,059, ie barely 6%).</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEht4fTCfBK0OpPDaTWaLc1Y8rHjUHwl3puQLgLWXgPCf0jKpIaMS5dqW9LpFlR_87rLuUxjIFtMi2ONRmONY5K9npKDZZNvf7EhbtlMT-Cavv16OCuQv2Iy2aCeGoBexQE3E4vN8oSGDsATC_C_AGaglKdfbKJ3BQWZbKLit7SH4a_STeeK0l3h8cZFwQ/s320/Klaviatur%20Ren%20Stemning%20falskhed.png" class="align-center"/></p>
<p><em>In a scale based on C, played on most modern pianos, keyboards, guitars and more, the tones indicated by red dot will be considerably false.</em></p>
<p>When said musician reacted as he did, I would argue that it may not only, but also, be because the pure intervals may sound peculiar when throughout one's life you have become accustomed to playing and listening to false versions. However, the the music director's tone of voice did change when it became clear that the program would feature <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_temperament" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Per Nørgaard</a> (leading Danish composer), and that he himself would show up for the concert, where he played excerpts from his works <em><a href="http://www5.kb.dk/da/nb/dcm/udgivelser/norgard/vaerkliste.html?id=d0e60341&sort=" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Turn</a></em> and <a href="http://www5.kb.dk/da/nb/dcm/udgivelser/norgard/vaerkliste.html?id=d0e61130&sort=" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Spell</em></a>.</p>

<p><strong>THE OCTAVE SPIRAL</strong></p>
<p>Just intonation is based on the tones from the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_(music)" target="_blank" rel="noopener">harmonic series</a>, which – given by nature as it is – is our ultimate reference for the purity of intervals. You can get an impression of these intervals in the <a href="https://suonoterapia.org/overtones/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interactive rendering of the octave spiral</a> programmed by my friend Marco Gianotta.</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglePCt6nEXXhQ9mxON2s3srMmAXxIktH9_MC5b8uNo3J-VJFd07N-peuKRI-XSu-8XPWBFV8JPFJINL04cwqKZX8Be7mC9zCvonbHsH8b5s9u_xbBbU8gu4qaVDVpOaCKT5E0gyPxmqNi4PvX-tBtiIZQ3y4KIuDbh_akwGAtYeJ5RbpckioJV2i4DfQ/w640-h640/Under-%20og%20overtonespiral.png" class="align-center" width="720" height="720"/></p>
<p><em>This diagram is based on the octave spiral mentioned above. Moving clockwise in the outer grey circle, the interval fractions indicate 12 tones in Just intonation: prime-minor second-major second-minor third-major third-fourth-tritone-fifth-minor sixth-major sixth-minor seventh -major septim (-octave).</em></p>
<p><em>The red spiral represents the first four octaves of the harmonic series, 1-2-4-8-16. When you start in the center and follow the red spiral arm clockwise, each revolution will represent one octave. More and more tone functions (integers) are added with each turn, and thus the neighboring intervals become ever smaller:</em></p>
<p><em>First revolution: 1:2</em><br/> <em>Second revolution: 2:3:4</em><br/> <em>Third revolution: 4:5:6:7:8</em><br/> <em>Fourth revolution: 8:9:10:11:12:13:14:15:16</em><br/> <em>In the harmonic spiral:</em></p>
<p><em>1-2-4-8 -... are octaves of the primary note, do</em><br/> <em>3-6-12 -... are octaves of the perfect fifth, so</em><br/> <em>5-10-20 -... are octaves of the major third, mi.</em><br/> <em>The blue spiral is the inverse of the harmonic series, ie a reflection through the vertical axis. The so-called "subharmonic series" does not have the same manifest character as the harmonic series, whose partial tones can be measured directly in the sound, so there is reason to use the former term with caution.</em></p>
<p><em>The partials of the harmonic series are thus mirrored about the vertical axis in the inverse, blue spiral, but also the intervals in the outer, gray circle have a mirror character. The fractions are inverse of each other, as the inverted fractions are in all cases by 'octavation' (multiplication or division by 2-4-8 ...), are brought into the 'mother interval' 1: 2 (one to two).</em></p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>LENGTHS, NUMBERS & TONES</strong></p>
<p>The self-chosen limitation in historical Just intonation is that it only operates with the first three primary functions in the harmonic series, corresponding to the first three <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_number" target="_blank" rel="noopener">prime numbers</a>, 2, 3 and 5, which <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-limit_tuning" target="_blank" rel="noopener">translated into music</a> have to do with the intervals octave, fifth and major third. NB! In that particular order: prime number 3 creates the perfect fifths of music (contrary to fifth step in the constructed scales of music), prime number 5 creates large thirds (constrary to the third step in the constructed scales of music).</p>
<p>In other words: We are dealing with a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-limit_tuning" target="_blank" rel="noopener">[2; 3; 5] system</a>.</p>
<p>The numbers should be understood in the light of length divisions of a string:</p>
<p>½ length gives the double frequency – the experience of the quality of the octave<br/> 1/3 length gives 3-fold frequency – the experience of the quality of the fifth (twelth)<br/> 1/5 length gives 5-fold frequency – the experience of the quality of the just major third</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM6P-xiblOtZRICOjJEyOHIU6Xoy4vSySW27jrk1Is_IZ8Ib6BbXP5UDctJy8nCY9YVOLeDBreTU_kIsWEcDyYyaLG8aGNDJliHcvI7mBkcgzUl1bn-9KK00Isa2rheTLfd2QGQceXZqiqEvsw4kFY08-um77JuJVdE46eiRSH6weWOrsmijja-zZVVw/w640-h260/IMG_20220416_105000618.jpg" width="714" height="290"/></p>
<p><em>Homemade, three-string <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monochord" target="_blank" rel="noopener">monochord</a> with fitted measuring tape and sliding frets on two of the strings. As can be seen, the string length is 60 centimeters. 60 = 2x2x3x5, and it is certainly not without reason that it was used as a base by the ancient Mesopotamians, and that we, among other things, still carry memories of it on our left wrist. The lengths 60-54-48-45-40-36-32-30 (2^2x3x5-2x3^3-2^4x3-3^2x5-2^3x5-2^2x3^2-2^5-2x3x5) describe a major scale with integers. Relative frequencies: 1-10/9-5/4-4/3-3/2-5/3-15/8 (-2). At the photo one fret is placed at 40 centimeters. 40/60 = 2/3 = perfect fifth. The other is placed at 45 cm. 45/60 = 3/4 = perfect fourth. The third string vibrates freely in its full length, 60 cm. 60=1/1= prime.</em></p>

<p><strong>DIAGRAMS</strong></p>
<p>I am passionate about drawing diagrams to illustrate the patterns of the music. This post was born out of conversations with a good friend who inspired me to illustrate how intervals in a set of notes are complementary within the octave, and just as all musical intervals can be said to have their actual origins in the harmonic series, so an inversion of this series with the somewhat compromised term "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undertone_series" target="_blank" rel="noopener">subharmonic series</a>" may be considered the origin of half of these intervals:</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaUwUsVqyvWcHWJjA2CpVi5NQlgx2cRQ2SawkjrMK6UQnwFTvXTOI9P0Y-058h3Bb0zjxHfJAXb0gFfnXexVbEIy7tj2ZpHrJXHyLAmjIXV5fKeLVPPTI_sNg-wGP2PMhHK1sAjYbL2oIO3TByDQx4vQD6wgUELfrr_IVmBy0NOklHV2a6hmNaXPfDdQ/s1920/Over-%20og%20undertoner%20UK%20komplet%20INV%20K.png" width="720" height="405"/></p>
<p><em>The same 16 first notes of the harmonic series are here drawn in red in a note system. The inverse of the harmonic series is marked in blue. The 12 white notes are the basic material for the Just intonation.</em><br/> <br/> <strong>Color code:</strong></p>
<p><strong>Red:</strong></p>
<p>Tones originating from the harmonic series.<br/> Major and augmented intervals generally behave as 'expanding', feeling 'major-like', and tend to outward resolution.<br/> In the harmonic series, 2-4-8-16 -... are different octaves of the fundamental. When these factors are in the denominator of a (relative frequency) interval fraction, the interval has its direct origin in the harmonic series (the opposite is true for relative length fractions):</p>
<ul>
<li>3/2 = perfect fifth</li>
<li>5/4 = just major third</li>
<li>9/8 = major wholetone</li>
<li>15/8 = major seventh</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Blue:</strong></p>
<p>Tones originating from the "subharmonic series". Minor and diminished intervals generally behave as 'contracting', feeling 'minor-like', and tend to inward resolution.</p>
<p>When 2-4-8-16 -... is in the counter of an interval fraction, the interval may be considered having its origin in the "subharmonic series":</p>
<ul>
<li>4/3 = perfect fourth</li>
<li>6/5 = just minor third</li>
<li>16/9 = minor seventh</li>
<li>15/8 = small halftone</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Violet:</strong></p>
<p>Some just intervals are not directly related to a preceding prime (red) or a subsequent octave (blue), but occur between other partials of the harmonic series. These intervals may be either contracting (not least 6/5, the minor just third) or expanding (not least 5/3, the just major sixth):</p>
<ul>
<li>6/5 = just minor third</li>
<li>5/3 = just major sixth</li>
<li>25/18 = augmented fourth</li>
<li>36/25 = diminished fifth</li>
</ul>

Here, the same intervals as above are also described on an axis. During the tone selection on the top row, the intervals are arranged in pairs, complementary within the octave:</em></p>
<ul>
<li><em>minor second (16/15) - major seventh (15/8)</em></li>
<li><em>major second (9/8) - minor seventh (16/9)</em></li>
<li><em>minor third (6/5) - major sixth (5/3)</em></li>
<li><em>...</em></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<p><strong>HISTORIC</strong></p>
<p>It is important to mention again that these intervals from Just intonation are an idealized selection. There are multiple versions of Just intonation, some constructed partly at random, others with a specific purpose in mind. In contrast to the top diagram. As can be seen, the overall impression of the selected historical versions of Just intonation presented here is that they are more likely to include expanding intervals (upwards, to the right) than contractiing (downwards, to the left):</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNiBwo6oJVbedezZP2FYSGFbWkWyO92VuQD8pyj0n5zIIsfGl4tqKrDneWFyt10OsDeDEZtVLsKqbmpilTMMESBtNowi1htGH7t43sz7Xy_z3NIO6qlAU02DSDZoId2j8iJnpG-T4mq8u3LnuHXCVV8WgythD11J_CXdGRUs7Aai6HoY_MV6ZXZr_iZg/s2000/Heksagonic%20field%20of%20just%20intervals%20%20Euler%20Marpurg%20Kepler%20English.png" width="720" height="504"/></p>

<p>The Just intonation played a special role in the early Renaissance, but one of its disadvantages was that disonnant triads occur if one moves far away from the original tonal centre. However, the important role of the just thirds was cemented, which had been a problem in the preceding <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_tuning" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pythagorean tuning</a>, where these were not pure at all. A compromise between the two disadvantages was sought to be made in the subsequent <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meantone_temperament" target="_blank" rel="noopener">meantone temperament</a>, where in the most widespread version the major thirds are just and the fifths a little too small.</p>
<p>Then followed the diversity of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_temperament" target="_blank" rel="noopener">well temperament</a> during the baroque, where the music would more factually enter the era of modulation between different keys. This should not be confused with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_temperament" target="_blank" rel="noopener">equal temperament</a> which took hold later, generally well into the 19th century.</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>HARRY PARTCH</strong></p>
<p>In the context of Just intonation, mirrorong and complementary intervals, it would be appropriate to mention the American <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Partch" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harry Partch</a> (1901-74) from modern times. In his most famous version of Just intonation, the boundaries were expanded, so that he not only included the first three prime numbers and their music, but also the following two, ie 7 and 11. Thus he got a microtonal tone system, where the octave is not like habitual division into 12, but into 43 steps. In other words, Partch's extended mood is a [2; 3; 5; 7; 11] system.</p>
<p>Here the steps are depicted clockwise, from small to large. They all have a complementary partner on the opposite side of the vertical mirror axis:</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIG2Vwm0aRRs8zIDyk6i7qtE9uqeRXEckjsd4UF7PoOuspy8GTZ9J_PI4vImC2GbMmywx-ddw5iyjXuKw4HPYMZ9NcCj-xuVWDGOzwsPUi_glYsg2bD82Ln_mzfLBPLz7wDoJbYLnHUSbziIQoggdrVGNyaeNNLmNndSDpD6S83iAHFh2zBeiUbkdsOw/s1756/Partchpakser.jpg" width="720" height="752" class="align-center"/></p>
<p>And here is a similarly complementary Partch tone system consisting of 31 tones per octave:</p>

<p>"Insights into musical place, practice, identity, and heritage that arise during moves from steppes to stage, Chinggis Khan’s empire to globalization, and traditional throat-singing and horsehead fiddle to heavy metal fusion will--as with the Mongolian sound worlds so vividly portrayed--reverberate far beyond the borders of Mongolia."<br/>--Carole Pegg, author of <em>Mongolian Music, Dance, and Oral Narrative: Performing Diverse Identities<br/></em><br/><strong>Abstract:</strong><br/>Music cultures today in rural and urban Mongolia and Inner Mongolia emerge from centuries-old pastoralist practices that were reshaped by political movements in the twentieth century. Mongolian Sound Worlds investigates the unique sonic elements, fluid genres, social and spatial performativity, and sounding objects behind new forms of Mongolian music--forms that reflect the nation’s past while looking towards its globalized future. Drawing on fieldwork in locations across the Inner Asian region, the contributors report on Mongolia’s genres and musical landscapes; instruments like the morin khuur, tovshuur, and Kazakh dombyra; combined fusion band culture; and urban popular music. Their broad range of concerns include nomadic herders’ music and instrument building, ethnic boundaries, heritage-making, ideological influences, nationalism, and global circulation.<br/>A merger of expert scholarship and eyewitness experience, Mongolian Sound Worlds illuminates a diverse and ever-changing musical culture.</p>

<p><strong>You can help us!</strong></p>
<p>The Songs from the Outside and the Songs from the Inside echo what sings within us, whether we keep inside or share; what comes from us or what comes from elsewhere. These are the songs of introspection, songs of comfort, of invention and of dreaming. The need for inside when you're outside. They also evoke the call of space, the need to see the horizon, to breathe air and to feel the elements. The call of travel. The momentum towards the distance and towards others. In praise of nature. The need for the outside when you are inside.</p>
<p>Meïkhâneh is composed of Maria Laurent (vocals, banjo, tovshuur lute, transverse flute), Johanni Curtet (Mongolian overtone and throat singing, guitar, dombra lute, morin khuur fiddle), Milad Pasta (vocals, percussions).</p>
<p>Two guest musicians on bowed strings (viola and double bass) will add their colors to the arrangements: Dylan James on the doublebass and Pauline Willerval on the gadulka fiddle.</p>
<p>The recording and mixing are with the American sound engineer Bob Coke (Ben Harper, Souad Massi, Mukta, Daby Touré, Moriarty, Bashung, Noir Désir, JL Aubert, Jeff Beck, etc.) at Studio du Faune in Montauban-de-Bretagne (Fr).</p>
<p>Although the album will be released on a label, the entire artistic part (creation, recording, mixing) is produced by our organization, Association Cas Particuliers.</p>

<p>OVERTONE SINGING<br/>INTERTWINES MUSIC, MATHS, ... AND LANGUAGE!</p>
<p>Hopefully the above statement doesn't sound too overrating for anyone who personally has given attention to overtone singing, where the music very obviously is expressed through number and wovel sounds.<br/>Two days ago I appealed for assistance to translate the interface of the Overtone Spiral program, and I am overwhelmed by the kind and generous responses, which may lead to a German, a Spanish, a Romanian, and maybe even a Finnish version.</p>
<p>I also shared a link to the program in various music theory and microtonal groups, and the respons was great. One of the most pleasing things was how Paul Christian from Minneapolis within minutes was able to write about 100 lines code, which could not only render the Ari graphic (Ari for 'arithmetics') I have used for representation of numbers in the app, but it included four different ways of systematisation.</p>
<p><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/8676303495?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/8676303495?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-full"/></a></p>
<p>LEARN TO COUNT WITH OVERTONE SINGING<br/>Overtone singers ought to be aware, that each new prime number introduces a new musical function through the harmonic series.<br/>Ari is not a number system like the [2, 5] base 10 system which forms the basis of most modern number culture, or like the sexagesimal [2, 3, 5] system used in ancient Mesopotamia. Ari is a representation of the essence of number analysis, the prime factorization. As such it is also a representation of music.</p>
<p>Brief introduction:<br/>- The numbers appear as circles/wheels which are divided by 'spokes'.<br/>- Prime numbers (2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, ...) appear as wheels with a number of spokes/radials going all the way from perimeter to center.<br/>- Each added concentric ring indicates that the number consist of one further factorization element.</p>
<p>Example:<br/>15 = 3x5 may be a good place to start as it is composed by the two first odd primes, 3 (perfect fifth in music) and 5 (just major third in music). A perfect fifth interval plus a just major third interval gives us the just major seventh (=15).<br/>The circle representation shows four versions, different ways of systemising. <br/>In the two upper ones all 15 subdivisions can be seen in the outer ring.<br/>In the two lower ones the rings only illustrates the primes, 3 and 5 in different order.</p>Translating the Overtone Realitytag:www.overtone.cc,2021-03-17:884327:BlogPost:3169882021-03-17T12:50:36.000ZSkye Løfvanderhttps://www.overtone.cc/profile/SkyeLoefvander

The patients who lingered in the hallway smiled and banged drums as they passed. Some people asked me if I had their favorite band on my iPad. Some would peek out of their rooms and exclaim, "Molly is here!" It's time for a music therapy group! Often times, I would hear of patients sleeping in their rooms when I arrived, but their friends would gently wake them up with a self-assured, "You don't want to miss this."</p>
<p><strong>Music to my ears</strong></p>
<p>I have been fortunate enough to serve many children and adults in various mental health settings as a music therapist. I have heard stories of resilience, strength and adversity. I have worked with people who have lived through trauma, depression, grief, addiction and more. These people did not come to me at their prime, but despite feeling lost or broken, the music provided the opportunity for them to express themselves and to experience safety, <a href="https://www.wowessays.com/" target="_blank">free essay writers online</a> about this peace and comfort.</p>
<p>Research shows the benefits of music therapy for various mental health issues, including depression, trauma, and schizophrenia (to name a few). Music acts as a way to deal with emotions, trauma, and grief, but music can also be used as a regulating or calming agent for anxiety or deregulation.</p>
<p>Music therapy involves four major interventions:</p>
<p><strong>Lyrical analysis<br/></strong> <br/> While talk therapy allows a person to talk about topics that may be difficult to discuss, lyric analysis introduces a new and less threatening approach to dealing with emotions, thoughts, and experiences. A person receiving music therapy is encouraged to offer insight, alternative lyrics, and tangible tools or themes from lyrics that can apply to obstacles in their life and treatment. We all have a song that we care deeply about and enjoy. Lyric analysis gives an individual the opportunity to identify song lyrics that may correlate with their experience.</p>
<p><strong>Improvisational music</strong></p>
<p>Playing instruments can encourage emotional expression, socialization, and exploration of various therapeutic themes (ie Conflict, Communication, Grieving, etc.). For example, a band can create a "storm" by playing drums, rain sticks, thunder tubes and other percussion instruments. The group can note areas of escalation and de-escalation in the improvisation, and the group can correlate the “ups and downs” of the storm to particular feelings they may have. This creates an opportunity for the group to discuss their feelings more.</p>
<p><strong>Listening to active music<br/></strong> <br/> Music can be used to regulate mood. Because of its rhythmic and repetitive aspects, music engages the neocortex of our brain, which calms us down and reduces impulsivity. We often use music to match or change our mood. While there are benefits to matching music to our mood, it can potentially keep us depressed, angry, or anxious. To change mood states, a music therapist can play music to match the person's current mood, then slowly shift to a more positive or calm state.<br/>
<strong><br/>
Song writing</strong></p>
<p>Writing songs provides opportunities for expression in positive and rewarding ways. Anyone can create lyrics that reflect their own<a href="https://repository.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1094&context=mapp_capstone" target="_blank">thoughts and experiences</a>, and select the instruments and sounds that best reflect the emotion behind the lyrics. This process can be very rewarding and can help build self-esteem. This intervention can also create a sense of pride, as someone listens to their own creation.</p>
<p><strong>On another side</strong></p>
<p>When I was working in a residential treatment center, I was informed that a child refused to continue to see his usual therapist. Although he initially hesitated to meet me, he quickly got excited about our music therapy sessions.</p>
<p>During our first session we decided to check out the lyrics to “Carry On” by FUN. I asked her to explain what it means to be a "shining star", which is mentioned several times in the song. I was expecting this 8 year old to tell me something simple, like "that means you are special". But he surprised me when he said, in a neutral tone, “It means that you are something that other people notice.</p>Onlinekurs OBERTONGESANGtag:www.overtone.cc,2020-09-16:884327:BlogPost:2579392020-09-16T06:51:00.000ZBernhard Mikuskovicshttps://www.overtone.cc/profile/mikuskovics

<p><em>A modern and polyphonic exploration of the traditional overtone singing from Mongolia</em></p>
<p>Khöömii and throat singing in polyphony: a treasure for the lovers of Mongolian overtone singing!</p>
<p>After a first self-producted album in 2009 and a participation in the double-disc An Anthology of Mongolian Khöömiiin 2017, Khusugtun releases Jangar, its second opus. Since over 10 years, it is one of the most celebrated khöömiiand throat singing groups from Mongolia. Revealed by the Khöömii International Festival of Ulaanbaatar, BBC Proms, Rainforest Music Festival, Khusugtun has acquired international renown. With its impressive khöömii soloists, it has become one of the influences of the phenomenal band The Hu.</p>
<p>The peculiarity of this sextet lies in the use of vocal polyphony, a recent exploration in the Mongolian throat singing tradition. Their repertoire, almost entirely dedicated to khöömii (throat singing), is made up of traditional forms, such as praise songs (magtaal), short songs (bogino duu), or compositions inspired by the Mongolian music tradition.</p>
<p>The group accompanies itself with the horse-head fiddles morin khuur, their double-bass version ikh khuur, the lute tovshuur anddombra, guitar, cello and the zither yatga. In addition, they use instruments with play on overtones, such as mouth harp in metal (tömör khuur)and bamboo (khulsan khuur), as well as the musical bow (numan khuur). This instrument has been forgotten and Khusugtun is contributing to bring it up to date.</p>
<p>Synonymous with "nomads", their name represents the desire to travel by music, like their ancestors who migrated across the globe. The group characterizes its style with melodious tunes intended to purify listeners from the ambient stress of the twenty-first century. What matters to them is that people listen to their music by imagining the landscape and the beauty of nature, to free themselves from daily worries. Thanks to a peerless level of interpretation, their powerful music is full of large space that makes us feel good.</p>
